Calculate when your mobile or DTH recharge plan expires. Enter the recharge date and validity period to instantly know the exact expiry date of any prepaid plan.
Keeping track of when your prepaid mobile recharge plan expires is essential to avoid disruption in calls, data, and SMS services. Missing a recharge can result in loss of your mobile number's active status, and in some cases, loss of the number itself if it remains inactive for too long.
| Operator | Common Plan Validity | Annual Plans |
|---|---|---|
| Jio (Reliance Jio) | 14, 28, 56, 84 days | 365 days, 365+ days |
| Airtel | 28, 56, 84 days | 365 days |
| Vi (Vodafone Idea) | 28, 56, 84 days | 365 days |
| BSNL | 28, 30, 60, 90 days | 365 days |
When a prepaid plan expires, most operators provide a grace period during which you can still receive calls and SMS, but outgoing services may be blocked. After the grace period (typically 15–30 days), the SIM may be deactivated and the number recycled. Recharging during the grace period usually restores all services.
Annual recharge plans (365 days validity) are popular in India because they offer significant savings compared to monthly plans. For example, a ₹2,999 annual Jio plan works out to about ₹250 per month, compared to ₹349 for the monthly 28-day equivalent — saving you roughly ₹1,188 per year. However, these savings only apply if you don't switch networks during the year.
Many Indians carry multiple SIM cards for different networks. Use our recharge plan expiry calculator for each SIM to keep track of all validity dates in one place and avoid any SIM going inactive due to a forgotten recharge.
